CLEANING AND CARE
CAUTION: The appliance must not be connected to the power source during cleaning as there is a
danger of electrical shock. Before cleaning, turn the appliance off and unplug the unit.
It is recommended the appliance (interior and exterior) should be cleaned regularly at least every
two months.
Exterior Cleaning
•
Wipe the control panel with a clean, soft cloth.
•
Spray mild detergent onto the cleaning cloth instead of spraying directly onto the surface of the
appliance. This helps to ensure even distribution of moisture to the surface.
•
Clean the doors, handles, and cabinet surfaces with a mild detergent, and then wipe dry with a
soft cloth.
CAUTION: Do not use sharp objects to clean the appliance, as they are likely to scratch the surface.
Do not use thinner, car detergent, Clorox, ethereal oil, abrasive cleansers, or an organic
solvent, such as Benzene, for cleaning. These products may damage the surface of the
appliance and may cause a fire.
Interior Cleaning
•
Clean the interior of the appliance regularly. It will be easier to clean with fewer items stored
inside.
•
Wipe the inside of the fridge freezer with a weak solution of baking soda and water, and then
rinse with warm water using a wrung-out sponge or cloth. Wipe completely dry before replacing
the shelves and baskets. Thoroughly dry all surfaces and removeable parts before putting them
back into place.
Door Seals Cleaning
Keep the door seals clean. Sticky food and drinks can cause the door seals to stick to the cabinet
and tear when the door is opened. Wash the seal with a mild detergent and warm water. Rinse and
dry it thoroughly after cleaning.
CAUTION: Only after the door seals are completely dry should the appliance be turned back on and
plugged back into the power source.
Defrosting
Although this appliance defrosts automatically, a layer of frost may build up on the freezer
compartment’s interior walls if the freezer door is opened too frequently or kept open too long. If the
frost is too thick, choose a time when the freezer is nearly empty and proceed as follows:
Remove any existing food or storage baskets, unplug the appliance from the power source, and
leave the doors open. Ventilate the room thoroughly to accelerate this process.
When the defrosting is completed, clean your freezer as described above.
CAUTION: Do not use sharp objects to remove frost from the freezer compartment. Only after the
interior is completely dry should the appliance be turned back on and plugged back into
the power source.
